Reduced Clot Stability by Thromboelastography as a Potential Indicator of Procedure‐Related Bleeding in Decompensated Cirrhosis
In patients with decompensated cirrhosis, procedure‐related bleeding is a potentially lethal complication. Routine coagulation tests such as international normalized ratio and platelet count do not predict bleeding risk. We investigated whether thromboelastography (TEG) can identify patients with ci...
